THE LOTTERY DEBATE.

Views of Some OF the Senators.
OF the debate in the Senate on the
Lottery bill, ALT Dotcn writes as follows;
Harris opposed it on general princi'
pies, believing it to be q bad bill for the
State and all concerned.
Briggs said he should favor IT,. We
ave a very stringent Law against lotter-
les which has been for many years on our
statute book. yet it has never been en-
forced, but has always been recognized as
a dead letter, being continuously violated
with the most perfect immunity. Even the
Louisiana lottery does q heavy business in
this State. Why not establish a lottery Of
our own and thus keep this money where
1t can do the most good?
Mr.. Fish would prefer that people
should purchase their lottery tickets here
in this State. and the present law does not
prevent their doing so II they see fit, yet
that law had prevented some hesvy lot
teries from taking place in past years,
the Supreme Court deciding it to be per-
fectly unconstitutional. II it could be
shown to him that this new lottery scheme
was of real benefit to the State and the peo-
pie he would favor it, but as it is he felt
inclined to oppose ii.
Nichols said the bill was clearly un-
constitutional. and il 1t passed, the Gov
ernor would be obliged to veto it.
Powell would like to keep all the
money in the State and get in all we
can, but il this was a good scheme be
didn't see why the State couldn't run ii
instead Of authorizing private individu-
ais to do so.
The bill finally passed. A~yes-Boyle,
Briggs, Fish, Foley, Forbes, Kaiser. Ly-
man, Maute, Nichols. Noteware, Osburn,
Pierce, Thoma-13.
Noes-Harris, Powell-2.
Absent-Sharon, Hardesty, Williams,

WHY PEOPLE MARRY.
Trif1lng Reasons Which Induced Some his

TrihIng Reasons Which Induced Some BIsu
to Commit Matrimony.
1t would be an interesting and in
structive lesson if, in community of
married people representing various
social grades, we could request the in
dividuals, both husbands and wives, to
inform US clearly and truthfully of tbs
reasons which induced them to select
their respective partners for life. IT
would be found in many instances thu
most insignificant tlifes had influenced
many of them in this most delicate
matter.
AS an instance In point, take the
case of the wealthy young Quaker who
married his wife simply because she
was the happy possessor of a pin
cushion! Here is the stery: He had
been out and his necktie became dis
arranged, when, happening to meet
two young ladies of his own persuasion
with whom he was acquainted, he in,
quired whether either of them could
give him n pin. One of the girls inn
mediately produced from her pocket q
natty little pin-cushiOn full of pins,
which she handed to him with a be-
witching smile. 1t is more than prob
able that this smile and the good looks
of the fair donor had a great deal to
do with the young fellows choice, as
he proposed to her and was accepted
the next day. But he always sturdily
that he was influenced ut
the time by nothing more than the pin
cushion.
Another illustration from life: A
well-edueated and intelligent gentle
man, on being asked how he came to
select the young woman who eventual
ly became his wife, and whom he had
first met in a well-known drapery
establishment, replied: Because I
observed how nimbly, yet gracefully,
she mounted a ladder"
We once heard of n young man who
that he had chosen his wife
an amiable, highly-accomplished girl
and splendid vOcalist-''Just because
she had eaten such hearty din1er at
a picnic.
Hundreds of similar cases could be
adduced, but the foregoing examples
Will show what small matters may in
fuence many in their choice of a life

Famous Wisconsin Bird

Eighth regiment, Wisconsin volunteers, 10
one of the attractions in the collection Of
war relics at the Exposition building. He
is only stuffed and doesn't look as big as
when he accompanied the eagle regiment
on Southern battle fields. a wooden tab
let attached to his perch bears this in-
scription: "Hatched February, 1861; died
March 28, 1881"
E. Fl. Webster, of Greenbusch, Sheboy-
gan County, Lieutenant of Company 3D.
of the Eighth regiment, gave Milwaukee
Sentinel reporter some information about
the old bird. "When our company came
into camp at Madison we were told by the
men of Company G, who brought the
eagle with them from Eau Claire, that he
was taken from his nest by an Indian and
presented to them by him. I have read
more romantic tale of his capture since
then, but this story is undoubtedly
correct, as nobody then thought of in-
venting the pleasant fictions about the IA
nous eagle which have since become so
numerous. Our regiment broke camp at
Camp Randall, in compliance with an or
der to go to Missouri, and while marching
through st. Louis the eagle broke its
string and few away. We all thought
that that was the last we would see of
him, and Colonel Murphy offered to give
twenty five dollars to any one who would
bring him back. You know Murphy, don't
you? He left our regiment and was put in
charge Of a brigade, and surrendered at
the battle Of Holly Springs. But l am di.

"While in Camp Curtis, at ST. Louis, one
of the boys pointed up into the air at a
large bird which was approaching up, and
said that he'd bet that it was FOId Abe"
We fixed a perch on a camp chest, and
very soon the eagle sailed down and took
his place on the perch. He had been fish
ing, and was as wet as a rat. We put
him on string again, and sometimes let
him go, as he was always sure of re-
turning. Occasionally we let him loose
during an engagement, and then he would
Fly about overhead or sit quietly on his
perch. ] believe the confederates brought
down some of his feathers once, and after
that he always screamed and acted mad
when fight was going on. General Price,
of the Confederates, once said he would
rather capture the eagle than the whole
regiment
'Old Abe' was q nuisance in some re.
specrs. He was thieving bird, and when
the rations were distributed he had to be
watched or he would steal the best NOR
sells away. He liked beef and all kinds of
meat when there was scarcely any for the
boys. He was up to all sorts of mischief,
and wounded some Of the boys who were
spared by rebel bullets. They would
plague him and he would peg at them,
frequently drawing the blood"
After the regiment returned from tho
war "Old Abe'' was well cared for at Mad
ison until his death, which ensued from
natural causes.

A Son sues His Father.

A remarkable lawsuit is about to stir the
gossips of Berlin. 1t is an action for dam
ages for defamation, preferred by a man
against his father. Both son and father
are rich. The latter having lost his first
wife married again, but the son re-
fused to love his fathers second wife,
which circumstance so embittered the
father that he is now harboring the most
violent hatred against the son. The latter
paid a visit to his mothers grave, and find
ing the inscription on the stone much
faded gave orders to have it regilded
and that the bill should be sent to him.
He also made it practice to regularly
adorn the grave with flowers. The father
noticing the fresh gliding sat down to
write letter to his son forbidding him to
ever do any thing more for the adornment
Of his mothers grave, "as otherwise means
and ways would be devised to tie his
hands evermore." The letter is written in
such abusive language that the son has in
instructed his lawyer to prosecute the
father for defamation.

How Pennsylvania Farmer Cracked n

Rev. J. Milton Akers writes from Pine
Island, Mimi, to the Methodist Christian
Advocate as follows: SIN the winter of
1890 the writer was teaching school in
Bedford County, Pa, and boarding with a
substantial farmer named Anthony Fell
ton. The ia nily was one of remarkable
ingenuity. One night after school the
conversation turned upon difficult prob
lens in mathematics. I mentioned one
that my brother had sent me, which / con.
sidered quite intricate. The question was
as follows Ct reproduce from memory
Sold 5000 ellis Flemish of cloth for $21,-
225, and gained as much per yard as one-
eighth of the prime cost of an English ell.
What is the prime cost per yard, and of
the whole piece?' On repeating the ques-
ton my host told me promptly it could
not be done.
81 repeated it for him several times dur
ing the evening until he had it's condi-
tions well fixed in his mind. assured
him had solved it by algebra, of which
he knew nothing. The next morning, on
coming from my rooms, he said: I can
tell you all about the problem now,' Upon
asking him how he reached the solution,
he said: Il dreamed it OUT I smiled in
creduously, for I had no faith in such
straight dreaming. said: Let me see
your solution,' and to my astonishment
and delight he produced an arith-
metical solution that was a marvel of an
alytical simplicity. I then asked more
particularly about the dream. He said:
AN old man, to whom had at one time
gone to school, came to me in my dream,
and, seeing l was troubled about some-
thing, asked me the cause. repeated this
question to him and told him that I had
told the master it could not be solved.
The old man said to me: sit makes no diff
ference what you told the master; it can
be worked" And he remembered it so
distinctly that he solved the question by
the instructions received in his dream"
